Hot Rods Dodge experts help

Just acquired a very rough 37 4 dr dodge, but has a decent front clip, hood fenders ect, and allready have a few early 40s dodge pickup cabs stashed back. My question is if there is any interchange with the 37,38,39 trucks? Pretty sure if not, I can do some cut and splice and build something. Just curious if anyone has anything to add, or any ideas?

36 37 and 38 are the same cabs,a few very minor differences.39 is a new design,biggest change was the V windsheild,the older ones had a flat glass in the front,the car had a V shaped glass too.That might be the deciding factor for a swap like this,the 40 ford pickups had car sheet metal,it didnt look too bad If you have the time and ability to do it,I would go for it.

Well, my other thought if the pickup idea proved impractical, is just as involved. Had the idea of shortening the body and making it a 2 door coupe...I really need to find someone to do some photoshop I think!
